There are places we’d expect a witch to live, but maybe witches are adaptable…WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE PART OF THE BOOK?The concept. You hear about witches in a lot of stories, how they live in the deep forest or a gingerbread house, or the swamp or a castle. I just wanted to let the world know that witches (and anyone for that matter), have different tastes, no matter who they are. We shouldn’t have to live in the shadow of a stereotype. I also thought introducing kids to the idea of real estate would be odd, funny and educational… WHAT DO YOU HOPE READERS WILL TAKE AWAY?Not to stereotype anyone. Realize witches (and all kinds of beings) live in all kinds of places.

  • Broom Hilda the Witches’ Wicked Kitchen Cauldron Cook Book

    M.D. Johnson

    language (, Oct. 27, 2015)
    It’s time I defied the stereotypical fairytale mumbo jumbo stories of witches being evil, being green, having warts, eating children and so on and so on. I’ll tell you the number one secret spell to good cookin’ is slow cookin’, which can best be achieved with a crock pot, no need for a cauldron, maybe in the days of old, but to let the steam and heat slowly cook a meal in a big pot helps soften and simmer in the spices, and truth be told you can cook anything in a crock pot, from meat to cakes, not just stews. Here’s to defying ancient tall tales and stereotypes; my name may be Broom Hilda, but I’m only wicked in the kitchen, just check out the recipes I present in this book entitled: Broom Hilda the Witches’ Wicked Kitchen Cauldron Cook Book! Plug in your crock pots and put on your favorite pair of comfortable shoes, you know the ones, with the curly pointed tips, and don’t forget your pointy hats as well with the wide brims…Book Trailers:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mAFWBUdAX9Ehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbG5XFHopzMYou might also want to check out my compadres works:Chef Wolfie's Hair Raising Hot PlatesChef Wolfina's Howling Halloween Holiday DelightsZiegfried the Zombie's Good Eats GuideSpencer Spider's Succulent Salads Cook BookSkinny Bone Jone's Culinary DelightsScarey Crow's Straw Berry Scares Cook BookJack O.

  • Nefertiti & The Great Lake

    T.L. Johnson

    eBook (, Nov. 6, 2017)
    Nefertiti was the most beautiful girl in all the land. So beautiful in fact that she was held prisoner by the Great Lake itself. With her people in peril, she has to make a great sacrifice. This book celebrates young girls ages 2-10 while teaching them a joyful and self-respecting representation of “beautiful”. This book was created out of the need to redefine the black princess and black fairy-tales as a whole.It seems like a simple idea, but love and respect for all girls of color, honoring their regality and admiring the beauty within each and every one of them creates the loving effects of positive reinforcement for girls about the acceptance of who they are. Moreover, it has a profound and unquestionable influence not only on themselves, but on those who are in their lives. Let’s champion our young ladies and mold them into the beautiful princesses they are all meant to be.
